    In Russia, social tuberculosis-controlling organization have been existing and actively functioning just for about 120 years. In the organizational context, they have gone a long way--from single interim and standing commissions by setting up local societies of phthisiologists in large centers of Russia (Petersburg, Moscow, Voronezh, Kharkov, etc.), the All-Russian Tuberculosis-Controlling League before the establishment of All-Union and All-Russian research medical societies of phthisiologists. At present, the All-Union Research Medical Society of Phthisiologists was reorganized as the International Research Medical Society of Phthisiologists and the All-Russian Research Medical Society of Phthisiologists functions as the Russian social organization. "The Russian Society of Phthisiologists". Throughout their history, social tuberculosis-controlling organizations have been playing an important role in forming and developing phthisiological science, in improving the tuberculosis-controlling care system for Russia's population. At present, social tuberculosis-controlling organizations hold great promise for their multi-faceted activities for the welfare of the population of Russia.
